Jan Von Holleben is the son of a child therapist which reflects in his work as he uses children to represent his childhood memories and concepts of playing. His work leaves me feeling nostalgic, it brings me back to my childhood, he creates big scenes then stands vertically above them to photograph so you feel like it is life size as the children are in proportion to the scene
To create these giant scenes we put a large piece of black material down for the background, cut out a moon and some planets using coloured paper. I thought the rusty hook would make it more interesting so we used it to look as if the girls were hanging off the moon with it. We also used cotton wool to create the stars, i think our attempt was successful and with better resources we could produce some really good scenes.
